  abstract: This book provides a practical guide to using statistics in natural resources research. It discusses both biophysical and socioeconomic aspects of research and may help bring them together, as is necessary for successful natural resource management (NRM). The topics covered include the types of study in NRM, research planning, data management, and modern methods of data analysis. This book will be of interest to advanced students and professionals in all disciplines in agriculture, forestry, rural development, environmental and related sciences.
